lolmac: (Math Lesson)

Round will take place on January 28-29, usual bat-time, usual bat-channel.

Mod Squad, I'd like to make sure I have current information on your availability, and your preferences.  Please respond to this post and tell me:

- What days and hours, in a typical weekend, are you available?
- What days and hours, in a typical weekend, are you never available?
- What days and hours would you prefer?
- Are you still happy with your usual shift(s) in the Master Schedule (if you have one; not everyone does)?

You can use either GMT or your own local time when answering, but be sure you tell me which one you're using.

Also, let me know whether or not you'll be available to mod for Round 25.

Other people:  if you've never modded, but you think you'd like to, post a comment answering the first three questions.  Also (VERY important), tell me what time zone you're in.  I'm always happy to hear from new people; even if your best times seem to be 'already taken', everyone has emergencies, and everyone needs to be able to take a break.  There will always be need for substitutes and back-ups.

On a typical weekend (Typical being: one where I'm in the same city for the entire weekend) I'm available on Saturday from 10 a.m. GMT until 11 p.m. GMT, and on Saturday from 5 p.m. GMT until 11 p.m GMT. I am ALWAYS (unless unexpected thingies come up) available between 8 p.m. GMT and 11 p.m. GMT on Saturday and 5-11 p.m. GMT on Sunday.

Never available - I'm going to give here general periods rather than hours, cos it can be flexible. I'm +2 GMT in winter, +3 GMT on DST. I like sleeping late, so while I can every once in a while wake up early on Saturday morning if need be, I generally prefer to be able to sleep late. I'd say absolutely not before 7 a.m. GMT, cos waking up before 9 on the weekend is ungodly :) I often don't go to sleep before 2 a.m., so I can mod until around midnight GMT.
Lastly, I work on Sundays, so I'm never available before 5 p.m. GMT.

3+4 - I'm great with the hours I have, I love them. I'd also be happy with Sunday night, because then it doesn't matter where I spent the weekend, and I'm always available to do that. So that's a lot less unpredictable mess on my end, and less headache for you.

and YES! I am very much available for Round 25, huzzah!

I'm in Mountain Time, which is the time zone I will be answering the question in.

On a typical weekend I'm available 6PM-9PM Friday Nights, 1PM-5PM on Saturdays, 11 AM - 5PM on Sundays

I'm never available after 11PM or before 8 AM. I'm typically not available at 6PM when my family is having dinner.

I'm pretty happy with whenever, though occasionally I get dragged into something with my family. As far as I'm aware, the weekend of round 25 is freeish for me.

Typical weekend: Well, I'm not sure if I have one of those (which you know from the many times you've had to reschedule me, sorry about that), but if there's nothing else going on, I'm available Friday from the start of fic_rush to 11 p.m. PT, and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. PT. Of course, fic_rush inconveniently ends on Sunday afternoon for me . . . *g*

Never available: I'd like to never mod before 10 a.m. PT. (It's the weekend!) I can mod later than 11 p.m. if needed, but I'm usually dropping by 1 a.m. PT.

Preferred days/hours: I like to mod in my afternoon / early evening, but it's not a strong preference. In fact, it's sometimes nice to switch it up, so feel free to move me around.

Usual shift: Yep, that's still good. Unless of course I'm busy. *g*

Round 25: Not only can I mod, but the weekend is wide open!

- What days and hours, in a typical weekend, are you available? Normally from 10am till 10pm in my time. I'm a little too tired to figure it out in GMT :D
- What days and hours, in a typical weekend, are you never available? I'm usually around unless I'm asleep or walking so from 10pm til 9am my time :D
- What days and hours would you prefer? I'm fine with the afternoon hours I do now. If there is another mod who'd like one of my shifts (cause you never know it could happen) I'd prefer to keep the Sunday shift but the Saturday one doesn't both me at all :D
- Are you still happy with your usual shift(s) in the Master Schedule (if you have one; not everyone does)? Yes, very happy though if someone wants one of my shifts I wouldn't say no to that either :D

And yes I'm available for both of my shifts for round 25 (Cause we're not at round 29 yet) :D

Whoops, I'm now busy on Friday the 27th from 6 p.m. on. But the entire rest of the weekend is still slated for fic_rush! :D

I'll be here for round 25.

I'm still perfectly happy with my usual Sunday morning shift. Generally speaking, I can't do earlier than that but I can often go for an extra couple of hours later if needed.

Depending on which week it is, I can now do Saturday mornings as well (I work alternate Saturdays so it depends when the round is whether I can or not) with the same 9am GMT starting time.

Yes, I can do 4 to 6. I'm not sure exactly when I'll have to leave (plans are still getting firmed up), but I might even be able to reply to people after 6. It's very unlikely that I'll still be home for a 7 p.m. post, though.

I can't guarantee that I can always open the Rush, but I should be able to do it most of the time. I work from home, and believe it or not, almost no one schedules a meeting for late Friday afternoon. Go figure. :)

Oops sorry about the delay.

1pm is a good finishing time break wise, but I can usually go up to about 4pm without the hordes descending upon me.
